At first I thought this was some clowns from minnesota, but then I realized this took some engineering skills and brains....

Would be cool too bad it was exposed as being fake 😞 It's actually a viral video released by Microsoft

Hey, Trippster, to add a video to your post, copy the portion of the video URL bolded above -- the part between the v= and the & -- and hit the YouTube logo button on the bottom row, then paste the string in there.

You can tell this video is fake because of the pendulum effect: the downslope is neither long nor steep enough for the slider to have reached the top of the incline without the addition of an outside force. This is why the downslope on a rollercoaster is always longer than the upslope that follows it. But the video is still entertaining nonetheless.

I think it's the angle the camera is at.. because I think it's very much a possibility to send someone flying off the end.

I think the guy would have gotten lodged about halfway up the ramp. To launch the guy off the ramp, I think the downslope would have had to be longer and/or steeper.

But you're right, it could be the camera angle. I just think the angle was carefully chosen to disguise the fact that the slider never got off the ramp.

You mean.....it's not REAL!?!?
A guy shooting through the air, landing in a pool, where his momentum alone should have shot him through the pool's wall if he was even lucky enough to hit the pool, is a FAKE???
I'm CRUSHED!

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing
